CGW 34383 10" X 3/4" X 3" T1 AZ-60H 60-Grit Premium Blue Aluminum Oxide Surface Grinding Wheel

The CGW 34383 10" X 3/4" X 3" T1 AZ-60H 60-Grit Premium Blue Aluminum Oxide Surface Grinding Wheel is designed for heavy stock removal with a precise finish on ferrous materials. It uses AZ-60H premium blue aluminum oxide grain, chosen for a balance of sharpness and durability, which supports fast material removal while maintaining a controlled grind. The wheel is manufactured with T1 specification and a hardness rating of H, indicating a relatively rigid bond that helps resist wheel breakdown under demanding grinding conditions.

Constructed to deliver efficient, cool cutting characteristics, this wheel is suitable for grinding heat-sensitive alloys, mold steels, and high-speed steels (where hardness is a concern around 58 RC or below). The combination of premium grain and bond minimizes loading and provides consistent performance across applications that require both speed and a clean finish. The wheel’s dimensions—10 inches in diameter, 2-1/4 inches thick, with a 6-inch arbor/shank—support mounting on compatible grinding machines and standard setups used in metal fabrication and maintenance environments.

Practical use considerations include selecting the AZ-60H wheel when your process demands rapid stock removal without excessive heat buildup. Ensure proper machine RPM and wheel compatibility with your tool, and maintain appropriate dressing to preserve performance. The package configuration lists each wheel individually, with a box quantity of five, which is helpful for ongoing maintenance programs and stock management in facility maintenance settings.
